Summary: By One Inch
Comment: This book was written by a fascinating woman named Uno Chiyo, who was unwilling to accept the life of a simple farm life. On numerous ocasions she left her multiple husbands to either go off with another man or pursue literary interests. This book is supposedly the reflections of one of her many men. An artist who had just recently formed a double suicide pact with the woman he loved. It is said that Uno shared the futon with the man that was blood stained by the man's dead lover. With this premise one would think that this book would be quite interesting, but in my humble opinion i found it to be quite boing in fact. Basically the reader gets the first hand ciew of the artist lusting after the several women he pursues while ignoring his wife and child. One can not really blame him for the cold treatment of his wife because she is quite cold and having amorous meetings on the sidew herself. What the reader gets is basically a description of the man's longing. The book does paint a good picture of bourgeois 30s Japan and the scene at the end is quite good.
